Awesome December 4, 2007

I purchased the stand alone software because I have the wireless guitar from GH3 already. I've heard that there's issues with the rock band guitar so I guess I'm glad I didn't buy the special edition. I am thinking about picking up the drums though. Anyways, I have to say that this game is really awesome. I like the new format with square notes rather than the circle ones and it seems like the timing is better. I've found that I'm able to hit the notes more consistently than in GH3. Also, I have to say that the track list is far superior than any of the GH games. I've played through the solo career mode already and I'm getting ready to start playing the multiplayer. I've only played it on medium thus far and I think that it was a little too easy compared to GH; I'm probably going to start trying to play the songs on hard or expert mode next. One thing I didn't like about this game is that you have to play all 5 tracks for each show before moving onto the next ones. The nice thing about GH was that you only had to play 4 of 5 so if there was a really awful song, you could just skip it. There was a couple of shows in ROck band that I didn't really care for even one of the songs or really disliked one but you have to play them all. This is probably not a big deal for some people who play all the songs no matter what but it was a little bit annoying to me.

Anyways, I can say that this game is definately worth picking up and I think it's far superior to GH3

Lots of fun. December 2, 2007

I bought this w/o the instruments because I already have the GH guitar, and I read all the troubles with the RB guitar. Funny thing is, so far I have spent more time singing than playing guitar. It is really fun. This is a really great game if you have an interest in music, or just dream of being a rock star.

Best Game Ever May 16, 2009

Wow, this game is pretty much the most fun I've ever had. My least favorite things to play are the guitar and the bass, because all you do is press some bright buttons, but the drums and mic are sooooo awesome. The drums are fun because I like hitting stuff really hard, and getting to sing songs like "Don't Fear the Reaper" is amazing. I can't tell you how many hours my friends and I have spent playing Rock Band, although it does get really annoying when someone wants to sing "Dead or Alive" ten times in a row.

Pleased with the game. May 13, 2010

I started with rock band 2 and was just looking to add more songs to my library. Turns out, for us a little bit older people, there are more good songs on 1 than 2. Getting a bulk of songs buying this was cheaper than $2 each downloading from microsoft and not all these songs are available for download either. Didn't have to tour long to unlock all the songs, unlike 2 that took forever just to get all the 2000+ era garbage our youth calls music. Just a note, if you have rockband 2 your instruments will work for Guitar Hero III and newer, I bought most of those too for the same reason.

My 16 year-old son and his friends play this game endlessly on the weekends. Even his father gets involved sometimes! It's challenging and great fun for everyone.
